To serve
  • Cinnamon
  • 10 almonds
  • 1/2 cup (75g/2.6 oz.) fresh or frozen berries

Method
 

  1. Mix protein powder and milk in a shaker until the protein powder dissolves.
  2. Pour in an airtight container and then add the other ingredients. Stir well.
  3. Store covered in the fridge for at least 20 minutes, or preferably over night.

Notes

You can store chia pudding in the fridge for 2-3 days, so it is perfect to make ahead to save time
in the morning. This recipe can also be turned into a smoothie. In the morning simply place the chia, protein mixture in a blender. Add the berries and process until smooth. Serve with the almonds on the side.
